“We use several PR consultancies but what distinguishes Kinetic is their tight focus on results. They came in early one Monday morning and I gave them a fairly tall order. A week later, the job was done on time, in the right way and on budget. All back - want to know more?

Measuring PR
We can measure results so precisely that we guarantee the outcome.
When we started guaranteeing results, we caused a bit of a stir in the PR world. “How can you possibly do that? It’s ridiculous,” people would say.
But, when you’ve been doing this for as long as we have, you are able to make highly tuned judgements.
We're so confident in our system to deliver marketing communications results that we give a money-back guarantee if we fail to get the desired outcome in the timeframe we agree up front.
This ‘skin in the game’ approach (a Warren Buffet term for putting your own money on the line) makes for a very different relationship with your PR consultancy – one of equals - with interests very much aligned.
It's not always about press cuttings, measurement can be both quantitative and qualitative...
Customer satisfaction - how loyal are your customers? Do they come back? What is the spend per customer? How do you fare in mystery shops? What do customers say in feedback forms?
Team turnover - how happy are people to be working with you? What is morale like?
Credit check - how healthy are your finances? How good are you creditor/debtor days?
Response times - do you have a service level agreement (SLA) and do you stick to it?
Returns/quality indices - how many mistakes are being made and how are you stopping them from happening again?
Google - search engine optimisation (SEO); is your website appearing on search engines?
LinkedIn - are you using it? Are you engaging with other people? How many recommendations and referrals have you got?
Twitter/Facebook - are people following you? Engaging in conversation? Wanting to find out more?
Blogs - are you commenting on other blogs? Are people commenting on your blog? How many people are following what you have to say?
Media coverage - quality and quantity of coverage
Balance sheet - are you using several dials/mechanics (not just financial) which are bespoke to you? Are you weighting criteria such as sales, staff churn and customer retention?
Industry benchmarks - how do you shape up when it comes to the competition? Do you have the necessary accreditations ie ISO 9001? What awards have you won?
Third party comment - what do other people say about you? In the media, online, etc.
Share price - how is it affected by what you do on a daily basis? What do investors feel about you? Why do they invest in you?
